 The First Home Owners Grant

If your state or territory offers a first home buyers grant and you’re eligible, this is a great way to boost your deposit. The First Home Owners Grant is a government scheme offering a one-off grant payable to eligible first home owners who are looking to be owner occupiers.

You can access information about the First Home Owners Grant by contacting the Revenue Office in your State or Territory, or by visiting www.firsthome.gov.au.

We can make it easy for you by processing the grant application with your Suncorp Bank Home Loan. Ask us how.
